Best Marine and Outdoors Kayak Paddle, Carbon Fiber Shaft & Fiberglass Reinforced Polypropylene Blades, 220cm, 234cm, 250cm, Lightweight Kayak Paddles for Adults

I have a kayak that has an elevated seat so the 230 paddles felt too short. This one is a tiny bit longer and it felt great on the water. I think it is USA made and it is a good price. It is actually lighter than my other brand carbon fiber paddle. I bought the red one and the colors are bright and vibrant. I am happy with this purchase.

I have been paddling for over 20 years. I have 8 kayaks and we use them all. I always envied the carbon fiber paddles, but never wanted to pay the $300..I lost a paddle at a launch and saw this one. for $99. I took a chance and its GREAT !! Light as can be and solid !! ! I swear it paddles better than all my others .Has a smooth entry and less resistance through the stroke. We passed it around at our last paddle and 1 more was ordered. Will probably get 2 more over the winter.If you are on the fence about a carbon fiber you will NOT be disappointed by the Best..Thank you Best for making these affordable and excellent quality. !!!

I’m very happy with it. It weighs basically nothing but is also very strong and durable, makes it very easy to paddle for long periods of time without burning your shoulders out. Not only does it function well, it looks great also. Would highly recommend adding some rubber grips cause the carbon fiber is very slick but all in all it fits and works perfect!

At first look they are very beautiful and a perfect match for my Tamarack Pro Fishing Kayak and that's what I wanted. They go together easy, light weight, feels strong. There are some small bubbles in one of the decal sides that concerns me some but hopefully that won't cause cracking or peeling and the drip rings are very thin and not sturdy at all but I'll put my old ones from my cheap paddle because they are far more superior. If I have any issues, you'll hear back from me but until then, I'm excited to give them a try. They even included a strap that I wasn't expecting.

I bought a pair of these for my wife and I. I ordered the paddle length according to their chart which is based on the kayak's width and your height. I'm sure it works in general, but it did not in our case. I'm 6'-3" and she's 5'-0" and thus I ordered her a shorter paddle. It was clear on our very first trip that hers was too short. We swapped paddles and she was much happier with mine so I returned hers and we now have two alike expect the colors.Once we had the correct length, we love these paddles. They can be clocked for a different attack angle, and also for a RH or LH paddler. The carbon-fiber shaft is light weight which is the name of the games with a paddle. They have lots of color choices too, which is a nice touch.

We purchased two of these paddles last week and tested them on the water last weekend. I think its a great paddle for the price. Not the lightest out there since it is a carbon fiber shaft + fiberglass blades, but a definite improvement over the fiberglass and aluminum shaft paddles we already had.The paddles will float on the water. They each came with a leash as pictured.The size - these were about 1.5 inches longer than my 230cm field and stream paddle.We weighed this paddle and came up with 970 grams or 34.22 oz. A fiberglass shaft field & stream paddle we have weighed 1130 grams or 39.86 oz and a cheap aluminum one we had was 1220 grams or 43.03 oz. (all pretty close to 230cm in length, but the BEST paddle was the longest of the three, but still the lightest by far).Blades very firm, provided plenty of power on the water.Nice finish, very smooth and easy on the hands. Put together well. Good firm engagement when the paddle is put together. Minimal "slop" between the two pieces.Definitely would buy again, especially at what we paid ($89). Its not as light as a full carbon fiber paddle, but it isn't $250-$400 either.

This is a great paddle! It's very lightweight and yet very sturdy. The one I originally received had a minor manufacturing defect. I contacted the seller and they were very quick to respond and sent me a replacement immediately. Great customer service for sure!

This paddle is great! nice and light. your back and arms will thank you after a long day of kayaking!
